CBD(Cannabidiol) is a cannabis compound that has significant medical benefits, but does not make people feel “high”. The fact that CBD-rich cannabis is non-psychoactive (as opposed to a THC dominant strain) makes it an appealing option for patients looking for relief from inflammation, pain, psychosis, seizures, spasms, and many other conditions without feelings of lethargy or dysphoria. Our full spectrum CBD Oil is CBD-dominant!
Hemp products sold in stores are most often made with hemp seed oil, which can contain only trace amounts of full spectrum. While it has been noted that hemp seed oil can be a great source of nutrition, its marginal quantity of “full spectrum” per weight makes it unfeasible as a full spectrum supplement. Our Full Spectrum Hemp Oil, however, is extracted from the stalk of specifically selected hemp cultivars, offering higher percentages of “full spectrum” by weight and additional nutritional benefits from the contents of our oil.
Dolgin was a veteran of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the National Counterterrorism Center, both in D.C., before he got burned out on government jobs. He’d been working on cybersecurity projects in New York when he met Justh. “I grew up as a Jewish kid on Long Island,” Dolgin says. “I like the idea of making an impact in a depressed New York community, and of looking at agriculture in a new way. We began to consider hemp. Because of my regulatory background, I knew how government works—and doesn’t work.”
It didn’t take long after U.S. consumers accepted kale as a superfood for the leafy green to take off. The same thing could easily happen to hemp seeds once more American farmers are allowed to cultivate and sell the crop. For perspective on the potential business opportunity, consider that Canadian farmers exported $45 million worth of hemp seed to the U.S. in 2016, making as much as $300 per acre, per season, farming industrial hemp. That’s five to 10 times as much as what our farmers in the Midwest are currently making for growing GMO wheat, corn and soy.
The idea for HempWorx came during a doctor’s office visit. Jenna Zwagil, co-founder, recounted how she was really sick. As the story goes, Jenna was diagnosed with celiac disease in 2014. She cut gluten from her diet, but she wasn’t feeling any better. While waiting for her appointment at the doctor’s office, she began reading an article on “the power of cannabis” on her phone, which was about treating autoimmune disorders using cannabis.
